================== WAP-5 OF INDIAN RAILWAYS IS A VARIANT OF LOK 2000/RE 460 LOCOMOTIVE ==========================
WAP5 is the name of a class of Electric Locos used by Indian Railways. The first 10 locos were imported from ABB (now Bombardier) in Switzerland in 1995. They are supposed to be a variant of the Lok 2000/RE 460 Locomotive.(Technical Specifications of both are almost same)

********* Enormous Monetary and Environmental Savings made by 3-Phase Electric Locomotives *******
So if 300 Locos can save 100 million units of energy annually in 2012 then
933 Locos as on Oct 2015 can save (100/300*933)=311 million units of energy annually now as per this Statistics as noted in the main BLOG
We have now 933 3- Phase Locos in IR's Loco Fleet (...

** Also shared the Video of Panto Down and Panto Up Mechanism of LGD WAP-7 by ON and OFF the "LSDJ" Switch of Panel A or Driver's Panel of the Loco as the loco and train move from one Power Sub-Station to another to avoid OHE Voltage Fluctuations**
LSDJ is the Switch in Panel A or Driver's Panel of every 3-Phase Loco(i.e WAP-7, WAP-5 & WAG-9) which is an Indication lamp, if it is red then it means that the Main circuit breaker of the Loco is “OFF”
